"Last night, the moon Eddie (had a) Gaden (golden) Rune (ring),

And to-night, no June (moon) we see!"

The Skipper, he blew a whiff from his pipe,

Allen (and a) scornful laugh laughed he.

Colder and louder Lou (blew) the wind,

A Gall (gale) from the northeast;

The Shaw (snow) fell hissing in the brine,

And the billows frothed like yeast.

Don (down) came the storm, and smote Arlene (amain),

The Westphal (vessel) in its strength;

She shuddered and paused, like a Fred-ed (frighted) steed,

Then leaped her Carl's (cable's) length.

"Come hither!" come hither, my little Dahnert (daughter),

And do not tremble so;

For I can weather the Rude-st gale,

That Everette (ever a) wind did blow."

He wrapped Herman (her warm) in his seaman's coat.

Against the Stanley (stinging) blast;

He cut a Root (rope) from a Bracken (broken) spar,

And Munger (bound her) to the mast.

"O father! I Harold (hear) the church Belles ring,

O say, what may it be?"

"'Tis a fog-bell John (on) a Crockett (rock) bound coast!" Ardeen (and he) steered for the Olson (open) sea.
